Our clients wanted a warm, cosy mountain retreat deeply connected to the landscape. Sustainability is a core principle and the upcycled LMA timber was selected for its reclaimed and carbon-neutral footprint. The double-thickness timber framing ensures maximum insulation for energy efficiency and every cavity is super insulated. Roof overhangs provide additional shading thus reducing heat gain.

Materials and finishes have been carefully chosen to blend with the local environment and comply with subdivision covenants. Using recycled Australian hardwood, trapezoidal roofing iron and plywood creates a cohesive and rustic aesthetic. Castle Hill III is a warm and inviting weekend retreat that pays homage to its local context and showcases modern design elements and sustainable practices.
